3 years of no defcon has made for quite an ass handing these last couple of days

Hehe, welcome back,
though I assume you don't know me. I was a noob, some say I still am, when you were already a vet.

Welcome back sir !!!

A few things changed and there's some tricky new tactics, but eventually : nukes are still nukes :roll:
Ah ! If you got some guts and money to loose, you can challenge Ace (or a few others) to win some paypal dollars !! ("goldcon" project)
You ain't that right anymore if you say "defcon won't pay the bills" haha !

See you soon :D

EDIT : Good lord, goldcon just ended up... (note to myself, i should read a bit more forum threats before posting :P )

Back in the day when specs could talk (most of the time), change their names (all the bloody time) and everyone knew everything about the sex life of a bacon fornicator. Also you only played in the games of those you could trust not to rage quit.

Good to be back, hope to see some of you in the game. I did send a speculative email to some of the other 'old n00bs' for a little nuclear reunion........

Also the KoTH thread made me laugh, thanks!

Lol, call me sad, but I've been reliving all the hilarious pm's of mid 2007.
Mrs Homeowner is not impressed by my nostalgia at what she deems 'imaginary friends'

Pah!

now this will be interesting to see..

a very very old player in our battlegrounds... maybe we can see the old ways of defcon.. how it was played... what were the fleet formations.. and how the game tactics were used...

please can you tell me what time you normally play at?? what is ur time zone and what is ur ingame nick??

just so that i can try to hunt you down... bringing down a Titan is a great achievement after all ;)

you give me too much honour!

1. Online nowish and about to search for a game in the next 20 mins or so
2. Was never that good, never played against all the gods of the time, usually needed some wingmen to help out
3. Four years of not playing has meant I've lost in every game I play at the moment.
4. Erasmus J Homeowner or just plain Homeowner
